Conference and Event Duty Manager

As a Conference and Events Duty Manager, you will be passionate about exceptional customer service and create a welcoming atmosphere that leaves our visitors eager to return whether attending shows, workshops, conferences, our new café and bars, or just meeting friends.

Between our two buildings, you will be responsible for supervising a large team of visitor services staff, whilst ensuring the safety and wellbeing of audiences in all our public spaces.

You will be on the front line, managing the visitor journey at all stages throughout our buildings.

You will bring strong leadership skills and a hands-on approach, be passionate about delivering first-class customer service and have the get-up-and-go to drive profit. You will thrive in a busy environment, with multiple events a day across two sites keeping you busy.

You will embrace the different reasons that visitors come to us – for gigs, shows, learning, workshops, conferences, dinners, or just a coffee – offering each and every visitor an exemplary experience.

Your previous experience could be from a variety of industries, such as a visitor attraction, hospitality, a sporting venue, festival management and, of course, the arts.
